The element has a filter medium (3) arranged between metal components (1, 2), which are spaced apart from each other by the filter medium. The metal components and the filter medium define a flow-through volume (4). The filter medium forms a wall area (5) through which filtering fluid passes. A laterally arranged flow channel (6) is partially introduced through the wall area of the filter medium, and is arranged opposite to a region (7) of the wall area. The flow channel is formed in an insert, which is insertable into the wall area.
